Intestinal delta-6-desaturase activity determines host range for Toxoplasma sexual reproduction

B. Martorelli Di Genova, S. K. Wilson, J. P. Dubey, L. J. Knoll

This paper identifies delta-6-desaturase activity as a determinant of species specificity for Toxoplasma gondii sexual reproduction, showing that feline intestinal lipid metabolism enables the sexual cycle while mice require dietary supplementation to achieve it.
